- 1 The Elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an Elder, and a witnesse of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be reuealed.
- 2 Feede the flocke of God which is among you, taking the ouersight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly: not for filthy lucre, but of a ready minde:
- 3 Neither as being lords ouer Gods heritage: but being ensamples to the flocke.
- 4 And when the chiefe shepheard shall appeare, ye shall receiue a crowne of glory that fadeth not away.
- 5 Likewise ye yonger, submit your selues vnto the elder: yea, all of you bee subiect one to another, and bee clothed with humilitie: for God resisteth the proud, and giueth grace to the humble.
- 6 Humble yourselues therefore vnder the mighty hand of God, that hee may exalt you in due time,
- 7 Casting all your care vpon him, for he careth for you.
- 8 Be sober, be vigilant: because your aduersary the deuill, as a roaring Lion walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure.
- 9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
- 10 But the God of all grace who hath called vs into his eternall glory by Christ Iesus, after that ye haue suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
- 11 To him bee glory and dominion for euer and euer. Amen.
- 12 By Syluanus a faithfull brother vnto you, (as I suppose) I haue written briefly, exhorting, & testifying, that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.
- 13 The Church that is at Babylon elected, together with you, saluteth you, and so doth Marcus my sonne.
- 14 Greete yee one another with a kisse of charity: Peace bee with you all that are in Christ Iesus. Amen.
